My Dad has cancer and needs treatment that costs alot!!
Hawke's Bay
My Dad has cancer!!!
He has been a trooper and has been dealing with it for three years now but his current funded treatment is not working. I would love to have $50,000 in savings to give to him for his next treatment which is not funded but I don’t. So here I am on Give a Little to see if there are friends, family and others that may be willing to give a little to help. My aim is to raise $30 - $50 000 for Dad’s treatment.
Dad has been active in real estate most of his life (actually up till last year he was still working) finding people their dream homes, supporting different agencies and locations all over NZ. I loved watching Dad do auctions. When we were kids he was the bus driver, hockey coach and player, audience member, netball, friendly ear to listen to, banker, money lender and loads more. He loves rugby and played before he had kids and even when we were younger. He now has the pleasure of watching one of his grandsons enjoy rugby.
Dad is lucky to have an amazing supportive partner in Carole, two daughters, four grandkids and loads of surrogate kids with his beloved pets .He can often be found in the veggie garden or taking pride in the house and property. He has passed on his love of gardening to both his daughters and his love and care of animals to his Grandkids..
Every little bit helps. If you have worked with Dad in real estate or feel called to give your donation it will be much appreciated and will go directly to the cost of his treatment.
Kim Shannon is my Dad.
The money will be spent on the next round of treatment (Binimetinib BRAF inhibitors) which cost $11,000 a month. All money will go directly to that.
